The Sanctioning of Human Sacrifice Part 2

“On January 22, 1973 that the taking of unborn human life is constitutionally protected up until the moment of birth. In 1982 the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee concluded in an official report, ‘No significant legal barriers of any kind whatsoever exist today in the United States for a woman to obtain an abortion for any reason during any stage of her pregnancy.’”3

But how many of us put this at the top of our priority list. Somehow we have allowed the stability of our retirement portfolio, rising gas prices, and the war on terror, to take precedence over the fact this nation sanctions the death of nearly 1.4 million babies every year?4 If life is no longer sacred in our land, our freedom is for naught. If we have no inherent worth, our value equates to our service, and thus it becomes widely subjective. Not only are the unborn now seen as disposable, but the handicapped, the elderly, and all those that some may deem a “drain” on society.

Does it anger anyone that the Civil Rights movement has come severely short, and has been hijacked to justify the actions of those who would perverse their own sexuality, rather than broadened to protect the most innocent of our kind? We proclaimed that if this other man is my equal, how can he be my slave? Yet how did we miss the fact that if this child is equally valuable, how can I take his life?

There are those that gladly carry the banner of equality, yet have the audacity to say, "I believe... but I'm not going to force my beliefs on others." Their political rhetoric betrays their façade. If that baby is a human being, abortion is ALWAYS wrong. It is murder, and we should outlaw the practice. However, if the fetus is nothing more than a clump of cells, then allow women to do with it as they wish. All those in between do not understand the issue and find themselves in paradoxical arguments. There is no middle ground here. There IS NO COMPROMISE!

But lets be clear here. Creating laws to criminalize the practice of abortion is not to imprison women who have found themselves on the operating table. Often times these women are just as much the victim, and deserve the same justice.

The true crime stains the very hands of those that hold the scalpel and the blade. How have we come so far to allow Doctors to profit from the death of children? It has become over a 90 billion dollar a year industry,5 which preys on confused and desperate women to fill their wallets. The entire industry is built upon the destructive lies that protect murder under the banner of freedom and choice.

Take this sinister line from Planned Parenthood’s website: “Family planning clinics, like your local Planned Parenthood health center, have specially trained staff who can talk with you about all of your options. But beware of so-called "crisis pregnancy centers". These are fake clinics run by people who are anti-abortion. They often don't give women all their options. They have a history of scaring women into not having abortions. Absolutely no one should pressure you or trick you into making a decision you're not comfortable with.”6

Crisis Pregnancy Centers are true non-profit centers that are truly dedicated to the health of baby and mother, providing women with ALL the facts, sometimes including free ultrasounds. Yet these “non-profit” “family planning clinics” rake in over a billion dollars a year from abortions performed. Their “trained staff,” are nothing more than marketing agents taught to befriend women in need, offering “unbiased” lies to ultimately “hook the sale” and coerce them into killing their child. "If a girl decides to carry her baby to term, . . . clinics don't make any money”.5 Last year Planned Parenthood performed 289,750 surgical and medical abortions. They referred 2410 adoptions. You tell me who has the history of pressuring and scaring women. (If you find yourself skeptical on this issue, read the stories of men and women that formerly performed abortions, and witnessed first hand the true worship of the almighty dollar)

My purpose is not to prove the wickedness of “pro-choice” individuals, but to reveal the evil deception that is propagated by those that believe the lies themselves. And it behooves us to remember that “our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” (Ephesians 6:12). And fight we must, and charge the gates of hell with such vigor and gusto that the entire foundation of this country trembles and God brings this nation to its knees in repentance.

So now reader, these are my conclusions. What are yours? What can we do to win this good fight?7

I spent a long time trying to find a figure we saw in church a few weeks ago and couldn't find it, but I did find one similar here: http://www.jesusplusnothing.com/studies/images/cycle.gif. It's a cycle of the Jews during the book of Judges, but it could very easily apply to our nation today. It's pretty plain to see where we are as a country right now as far as our moral compass is concerned. Great post, and love the passion!
